CompFox AI Summary
This case involves a petition for reconsideration and removal filed by Joanne Irving. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the petition for reconsideration because the WCJ's decision was not a "final" order, as it only addressed an intermediate procedural or evidentiary issue. The Board also denied the petition for removal, finding no evidence of substantial prejudice or irreparable harm, and that reconsideration would be an adequate remedy if a final decision is later adverse. Therefore, the Board found no grounds to grant the extraordinary remedy of removal.
